The Rabbi Nishlelam is perfect.
The human being is flawed.
But still the Rebbeinu Sholem can perceive a human being as being neman lefanacha.
A human being's actions can be considered neman to HaKadosh Baruch Hu.
And that's an amazing thing.
And it's an important idea for us to understand.
Because obviously we have no understanding of Avraham Avinu's greatness.
But one thing we do see from this Pasek.
that the Rebbeinu Shalom considered Avraham Avinu Naaman, which means that there's a possibility for a human being to attain that.
We might think that the Rebbeinu Shalom is endless, he's perfect, and there's always going to be a flaw in what a human being can do.
So how is it possible that the Rebbeinu Shalom should consider a human being to be Naaman? And the answer is because the Rebbeinu Shlom asks of a person what he can do according to his limitations, according to his situation.
That's all the Rebbeinu Shlom asks of us.
Do Avedas Hashem according to your keichas, according to the situation that I put you in.
That's what the Rebbeinu Shalom wants.
And that's what Nemon Lefanecha means.
It's possible to even be considered Nemon in front of the Rebbeinu Shalom, even if you're Avraham Avinu.
But it still has to be understood.
How is such a thing possible? Avraham Avinu wasn't perfect.
The Rebbeinu Shalom is perfect.
There's no human being who's perfect.
And the answer is the Rebbeinu Shalom doesn't demand that perfection.
The Rebbeinu Shalom's perfection is utilizing the abilities that HaKadosh Baruch Hu gave you.
And Avraham Avinu fulfilled his abilities to the max, and that's why he was considered Nemon Lefanecha, and you can do the same.
Chayiv Odom Loimar, Chazal say, a person should say, Mosay Yagiyu Masay L'masay Avram Vitzel Giyaketh.
When are my actions going to be like the actions of Rav Amitzak and Yaakov? That means, just like the others utilized every talent, every ability that they had in Avedis Hashem, I should aspire to do the same.
